As someone whos written code in Haskell (even some medium sized programs) and moved on just fine, no.
Frankly, Haskell can be an excercise in frustration.
- jwdunne 10y agoIt depends, I imagine, on how much you enjoy working with it. If it was so painful, I think moving to another language would be refreshing as opposed to depressing.
- mathw 10y agoI'd concur. It's mostly around tooling for me (and Stack has helped here) but whenever I pick up Haskell for an out-of-work project now I end up putting it down again. I find Rust increasingly pleasing, although the lack of constraints on side effects is frustrating compared to Haskell's purity.
